Labor Board's Critics See a Bias Against Workers

The New York Times (free registration required) says "The rulings of the National Labor Relations Board have poured out one after another in recent months, with many decisions tilting in favor of employers.

"The Republican-dominated board has made it more difficult for temporary workers to unionize and for unions to obtain financial information from companies during contract talks. It has ruled that graduate students working as teaching assistants do not have the right to unionize at private universities, and it has given companies greater flexibility to use a powerful antiunion weapon - locking out workers - in labor disputes."
